美國田納西州有一位名叫Sapphyre Johnson的小女孩,天生就缺少了兩個腳掌和幾隻手指頭,而她在日前得到了一隻”跟她一樣”的玩伴…一隻天生失去腳掌的德國牧羊犬!

Missing their feet: Of the nine pups in the litter, Lt. Dan, named for the character in Forest Gump who lost his legs, was the only one missing a paw and Sapphyre Johnson had to have her feet amputated 

 

這隻9週大的德國牧羊犬名叫Lt.Dan,名字的是以電影《阿甘正傳》中失去雙腿的丹泰勒中尉來命名。

Different: Lt.Dan was the only one out of nine puppies who was born without a paw and fellow breeders suggested to his original owner that he be put down

Lt.Dan和其他8隻兄弟姊妹一起出生時、他就被發現一隻腳的腳掌有缺陷,本來被覺得應該要安樂死、因為這樣的缺陷會使他比較脆弱,但前主人Karen Riddle卻沒這麼做,並且在之後打算讓Lt.Dan陪伴特別的孩子長大。

Brilliant Idea: Rather than kill Lt. Dan because he was different, his original owner Karen Riddle suggested that he be placed in a home with a wounded veteran or special needs child 

 

於是Karen撥了電話到Shriners醫院詢問是否有特殊的病童或受傷的老兵需要寵物陪伴,而就因此找到了Sapphyre了!

Playing and learning: 'In the future, I could see Sapphyre at her first show-and-tell in school and she could bring in her dog and explain about her dog and herself,' said an employee at Shriners Hospital

Sapphyre出生時就缺少了幾隻手指頭、而腳上也僅有一隻長長的拇指,為了方便穿戴義肢於是後來也截肢了。

Best friends: Sapphyre and Lt. Dan only just met but from the looks of it they are already best friends 

 

在她第一次看見Lt.Dan的照片時,她興奮地說”那是我的狗狗!他看起來就跟我一樣!”完全看得出來Sapphyre非常開心能夠擁有新的夥伴狗狗!

Right at home: The puppy felt so at home with his new owners that it fell asleep in the car as Sapphyre made her way home to Tennessee with her family.

 

而等Lt.Dan再長大一點後,他們也會為他殘疾的前腳套上義肢。

Just like me!: Sapphyre and Lt. Dan made fast friends on Monday and the two will grow up together at Sapphyre's family's home in Tennesee

 

醫院員工Elaine Hardin表示,這隻特別的狗狗會陪伴特別的孩子長大,彷彿可以預見將來Sapphyre在學校第一次展示課上帶著Lt.Dan並講述著他們的故事,不論是Sapphyre還是Lt.Dan、彼此都會是對方最棒的好夥伴。

On Monday, the nine-week-old puppy Lt. Dan without a paw found a new home with Sapphyre Johnson, a toddler who lost both of her feet
